April 2015

The April 2015 issue features a keynote article by KPMG on environmental compliance in the downstream oil and gas industry, as well as a look at the current energy situation in China by Nancy Yamaguchi. The issue is jam packed with a range of topics, including sulfur removal, petrochemical processing, process control and automation, heat exchangers and distillation. In addition, don't miss Hydrocarbon Engineering’s annual Sulfur Review, which provides a comprehensive overview of the key sulfur technologies available to plant/refinery operations. To finish off this issue, we pose 15 questions to Adam Bradley, Vice President for Gas Processing, Shell Projects & Technology.
